Final Four predictions...

Down to Four

There are four teams left in the 2013 NCAA Men's Tournament and by the end of the night...we will have our Championship game set. Both matchups should be entertaining so I suppose I'll make my predictions.

Wichita State vs. Louisville
At the start of the tourney, I picked a Louisville-Miami final...well Miami fell by the wayside but the Cardinals are in the hunt. Wichita State has had a great run and will be looking to pull off the upset. Overall I think Rick Pitino will get the Cards to the title match.
Louisville by 7

Michigan vs Syracuse
Syracuse has been brutal on defense through the tournament but were prone to lapses during the regular season. Michigan may have the answers to the Orange zone with their shooting from the outside, a decent inside game and a premier point guard. I think the Orangemen may fall just short...
Michigan by 4

Back with Championship pick in a day or so...

NCAA Sweet 16 picks

The 2013 NCAA tournament has reached the Sweet 16 and we will have a final four by the end of the weekend. I survived relatively well last Sunday going 6-2 on the day with North Carolina and Minnesota being the losses.

Ok...here we go for the first four games of the weekend that still has a couple of Cinderella's alive.

Marquette vs Miami Fla.
The Hurricanes seem destined.....Miami by 8

Arizona vs Ohio State
Ohio St. by 10

Syracuse vs Indiana
Could be a tough one for the Hoosiers....Indiana by 3

LaSalle vs Wichita State
LaSalle by 2

Short but sweet ...back tomorrow with the other four games....

Meanwhile in Australia......
The Semi Finals of the 2012-2013 NBL season got under way yesterday with both Perth and New Zealand picking up easy wins. Expect both the two to meet in the Final as they have been the dominate forces throughout the season.
